The Aquarian Minyan

The Aquarian Minyan invites you to our diverse and welcoming East Bay Jewish Renewal community. Our community was conceived in ecstatic creativity by Rabbi Zalman Schachter-Shalomi, co-founder of the Jewish Renewal Movement.

We are Jews of every level of observance, young and old, single and partnered, LGBT and straight, and every sort of family, differently-abled, spiritual seekers and practitioners of many traditions.

Our High Holy Day services continue a thirty-eight-year tradition of being created by the community and mixing the traditional with the innovative; the joyous with the solemn; ancient liturgy, meditation and inspired teachings with song and wisdom story; movement with poetry and inner silence.

We call this energetic laboratory of spiritual practice davvenin, prayer, and hope that you’ll share this year’s version of it with us!
